". E. Johnson:
DEAR SIR have examined the volumes
of Johnson's Universal Cyclopedia left
with me for that purpose, together with
numerous endorsements of scholars and
professional men, personally known to me
to be competent judges. and have fully
satisfied myself of its superiority over
Appleton's. 1t treats of more subjects of
interest and importance, has more salts
factory and far less expensive system for
supplying supplements, and from the we'll
known character of the numerous editors
and contributors has greater claims to be
received as authority. have accordingly
decided to exchange my Appleton's for it
and ANIMALS.

Mr.. johnson:
am much pleased with my set of
Johnson's Cyclopedia. Its articles are
fresh, authoritive, comprehensive and
clear. 1t seems to cover the whole field
of desirable knowledge under thorough
ly systematic and compact arrangement.
In my opinion it contains the largest
amount of valuable and reliable informa-
ton in an available form of any work of
the kind, have exchanged my Appleton's

DEAR SIR Il have examined with con-
siderable care JOHNsoN's UNIVERSAL
CYCLoPEDiA, revised edition, and have
made it a special point to compare topic
after topic in this work with the same as
found in the Appleton's revised Cyclic
pedia that | have used for number of
years. Appleton's has suffered in this
comparison. The treatment OF topics in
JoHNsoN's work is equal if not superior
to the treatment of the same in Appleton's
Very many important subjects OF recent
date found in JOHNsoN's are not found in
Appleton's at all so that considering both
the matter and The manner, | unhesitat-
ingly give JoHNsoN's the preference and
heartily recommend it to the public

A Jail Breaker.

The case of the people against John
Gibuer, charged with assisting pris
oner to escape from q Jail, came up for
trial yesterday before Judge Cheney.
The testimony showed that prisoner
had been inoarcerated in the calaboose
Mt Pomona, aud one afternoon Gibner
was seen to take wagon standard at
the back Of the jail and go toward the
front. A few minutes afterward the
jail was found empty and tho lock
broken. The prisoners were afterward
seen about town in the varions saloons.
The jury yesterday found Gibner
guilty, but A. s. Hazelcus, who was in
some manner supposed to be connected
with the case, was released, there being
no evidence to convict.

EpIroRs misunderstanding over the
HERALD this morning, my attention was
called to an article written by a Disguised
Democrat with reference to Marshal
Risley's appointments. With the view
Of the writer am in hearty accord, and
believe that the party here should take
some action to call the matter to Presi-
dent Cleveland's attention. l hardly
believe that MIR. Risley wouldhave re-
ceived the appointment II the authorities
at Washington could have anticipated
what he would do in making appoint
ments.
1t is very singular thing for man who
claims to be Democrat, to take into his
confidential employ dyed-in.the.wool
Republican, and one, as | am informed,
who was secretary of Republican eau
cas- club during the last campaign.
II any one man is to dictate appoint.
ments in the name of the Democratic
party Of Los Angeles, let him, at least,
give us O man little more loyal to his
party.
As l said before, do not think this
matter should be dismissed without some
action on the part Of the Democratic
Central Committee, Or mass meeting Of
Democrats to call the attention OF the
authorities at Washington to our Mar
shals conduct.

The first game of the great series be-
tween the Los Angeles Club and the
celeb rated San Luis Obispo Club will
take place tomorrow at the Sixth street
grounds. The last game between the
above clubs was won by the home team
by score of 4 to 3. Both clubs have
been greatly strengthened since their
last game, and there is no q9stion but
what this will be the most exciting series
ever played in Southern California. The
San Luis Obispo Club have a crack bat
terry in Buick and O'Neil, and have also
secured the services of the renowned
Ventura battery, Haydock and Elwell.
George Crawford, late manager and cap.

The improved method by which 1t has
been made possible to produce pure
cream of tartar, has had an important
bearing upon the manufacture of baking
powder. By the process heretofore gen.
orally employed, It has been found i'm
possible to remove all impurities, more
particularly the tartrate Of lime, which
remained to such an extent as to greatly
impair the quality Of the cream Of tartar,
and to interfere seriously with the
strength aud wholesome ness of the bak-
ing powders into which /. entered.
In the new process, which is owned
by the Royal Baking Powder Company
Of New York, and exclusively employed
in its extensive tartar works, the i'm
ported crude grape acid is SO treated as
to remove all vestige OF tartrate of lime
or other Impurities, giving product be.
fore unknown chemically pure cream
Of tartar.
By the employment Of these superior
facilities, the Royal Baking Powder
Company has made the Royal Baking
Powder, as the chemists all certify, of
the highest possible degree of strength,
absolutely pure" and wholesome, and
with an always uniform leavening pow
or. 1t is for these reasons that the
Royal never fails to produce bread.
biscuit, cakes, etc.. that are light,
sweet, digestible and wholesome; the
eating of which is never followed by in
digestion, or any of those physical dis
comforts attendant upon the partaking
of improperly prepared food. In rem
dering possible the production Of bak
ing powder possessed of these qualifica-
tions, the improved method of refining
cream of tartar becomes at once mat
ter Of material importance to the Gull
nary world.

ether is one thing / can say In re-
NV to that question: said Mr.. MIC
Dovell. ut Is not alarming. There
are many elements Of danger in an ex.
cursion, but you do not realize shem'
In the first place there Is the danger
your balloon may go up too fast or too
slow. II it goes up too fast you are
liable to aspsyxiation owing to a too sud-
den ascent into q rarified atmosphere.
If you 60 up too slow you may be dashed
20 pieces against high building"
s'But cannot that be regulated by the
nronaut!'
"Not 80 easily as you might suppose.
Throwing out piece OF tissue paper
makes a difference in the elevation OF
balloon. A collar button dropping out
gives it q big jump. That Is, OF course,
vheu the balloon feels inclined to soar.
However, when the balloon is deter
mined to drop you can throw out sew
ersl oyercoats and all the shoes in the
outfit and 1t will not have q perceptible
influence"
"You spoke Of several dangers. Are
there any other than those to which you
have already alluded"
Yes, there is one very serious one;
the danger from expansion. AS you as
cepd in the upper air strata the pressure
from the atmosphere lessons aud the
gas in the balloon expands and some
times it bursts. This means certain
death unless the torn silk forms sort
of parachute and breaks your fall.

would provide against it. 1t Is prooa-

TRUSTEES from the new Phillips building
on Spring street last night, one of the
front wheels collapsed and capsized the
wagon and its freight. The spokes OF
the wheel were smashed to pieces, and
for time traffic was slightly impeded
but willing hands soon piled the incum-
brances out of the way on the side of the
street, and everything pursued the even
tenor Of its way.
